Hall Roberts' Son, Inc. v. Plaht

These are two suits in equity, consolidated for trial, by existing creditors of defendant-husband to set aside as fraudulent a deed from him to his wife of an undivided half interest in a 143-acre farm. All the land, except a noncontiguous 10-acre timber tract was and is subject to a mortgage for about $8000. The remaining 133 acres include the nonplatted homestead of 40 acres with buildings thereon. The debts owing plaintiffs were not contracted prior to defendants’ acquisition of the homestead and it is therefore exempt from judicial sale to satisfy them. Sections 561.16, 561.21, Code, 1958.
